Abstract

This essay illustrates some recent developments to the DiffeRential Evolution Adaptive Metropolis (DREAM) MATLAB toolbox of Vrugt, 2016 to delineate and sample the behavioural solution space of set-theoretic likelihood functions used within the GLUE (Limits of Acceptability) framework (Beven and Binley, 1992; Beven and Freer, 2001; Beven, 2006 ; Beven et al., 2014). This work builds on the DREAM(ABC) algorithm of Sadegh and Vrugt, 2014 and enhances significantly the accuracy and CPU-efficiency of Bayesian inference with GLUE. In particular it is shown how lack of adequate sampling in the model space might lead to unjustified model rejection.
